Finally found some time and head space to listen to some Head Shepherd podcasts @neXtgenAgri. I'm a bit behind, but I enjoyed hearing the story of @MoorallaMerino, and particularly the respect between Ricky and Russell.

And that's a wrap. Last mob of sheep out of containment on Friday and had their final feed today in their newly fenced paddock. Bromar washed down ready for a well earned break until imprint feeding in September.

Big weekend with our kids and some of their amazing city friends learning new skills-300 trees planted, 4km droppers tied, electric fence stapled, domestic shed almost finished, ewes & lambs checked & bonfire, food, coffee, beverages, friendship, more food and beverages enjoyed.

Last of the ewes returning from agistment, heading into quarantine. Sufficient fences rebuilt, and pastures almost ready for early lambers. Huge thank you to the generous farming families who have cared for our girls. #firerecovery
